Absolute Giant! Congrats to whoever killed it! Throwing some real fast guesses together I "only" saw 17 scorable points so take that into consideration I got a "gross non typical" score of 189. Now I know such a score doesn't exist, but go from there. What a stud.

Also one of the better bucks ive seen from Ohio this year. Im in central Ohio, what area did you kill him in if you dont mind sharing?

From: Beav
30-Nov-18
Has to gross close to 190. APauls there is such a score as gross non-typical. Still deductions off of the typical frame. What a buck!

From: Zbone
30-Nov-18
Damn, that was quick...8^) Congrats!

BTW, Ohio buck and what date?... He was cruising during daylight hours on the 15th and 18th... Would like to add to the Rut Report thread... I bought the thread to the top...

I got 177 with my calculator. I wouldn't be surprised to be 10 inches low. But I would bet $20 I'm within 8 inches :)

Awesome buck!

193", guessing about 175-178 gross typical, then additional 15"ish+ of extra. Probably not even close....

How old do you think he is? In that trail cam picture his antlers dwarf his body. Maybe it’s just the angle too.

172 gross a lot depends on mass measurements. Shawn

From: ELKMAN

Assuming it's free range that buck/experience scores a 10 in my book!

From: Rock
02-Dec-18
Great Buck, score depends on if he has enough NT points to go NT. If not then there is a lot of deductions.

02-Dec-18
His score is: "Flippin' Big!"

Awesome deer man. I'm guessing around 180-185

From: SBH

From: Ty

Yes he is/was free range; I am REALLY against even caging a wild animal, let alone "hunting" one. I got him on Thanksgiving Day at 3:50 pm. It is going to be a bit before I can score him though, I had to leave the rack with my Dad when blizzard came. I will make sure to post it though.

Thought you guys may think this was neat too. IMO this could be his baby brother or son. The One side of his rack has some of the same characteristics. What do you think?

Still have not got him scored, but the lab results just came back and he was 7.5 years old.

7.5 years old buck in this state with all the pressure, gawd, that has to be a record...

“Still have not got him scored, but the lab results just came back and he was 7.5 years old.”

Just post the measurements here!!!! Put a tape on and take a couple pics, if you can.

From: Hancock West
12-Mar-19
172", maybe 174" max. Regardless he's a stud that no one should pass up. Congratulations

From: JSW
12-Mar-19
That is a great buck. Congratulations. It's always hard to tell from pictures but I'm getting around 190 total gross score. I'm also not seeing 15" of abnormal points, which is the current minimum to qualify for non typical P&Y. If there are enough NT then upper 180's NT. If it doesn't qualify as NT then probably about 165 net typical.

When are you going to have him measured officially? Regardless of the final number, a deer like that deserves to be in the book.

From: ROUGHCOUNTRY
14-Mar-19
Looks like a 175-180 inch typical frame and around 10 inches of non typical points...…..So, I'm guessing 185 to 190 inches gross.

From: Jack Harris
16-Mar-19
everyone seems to be in the 180s with gross, i will concur. "gross -non-typical" to me is a real score, it's just scoring everything and adding it up with zero deductions which should land this buck somewhere in the 80s. . Then there is gross-typical and net typical.

Congrats on a buck of a lifetime. Lots of character there - hard to beat!

Hell of a buck!! Congratulations! Scored as a typical or non-typical? How much non-typical score did he have? Main beam lengths? Obviously a giant!

Great buck, Ty! How long ago did you have it measured? It would be interesting to know how much shrinkage occurred from the day of harvest until you had it scored.

From: pipe

From: Ty

t-roy, 7 months passed before I got to measure it, so I never got a green score. I am not sure how much they shirk???

From: t-roy
25-Jun-19
Thanks Ty.

I killed a similarly scoring buck in January of ‘17 that ended up (officially) scoring 191 & 2/8ths” gross, when I had him scored 14 months after I killed him. I green scored him the day after I shot him right at 195”, and my taxidermist buddy (who used to be an official P&Y scorer) taped him out at 195 & 3/8ths” a few days later. He basically lost approximately 4” in that timeframe. I wish I would have kept my sheet that day to compare it to the official scoresheet and see where the shrinkage occurred. Would be interesting to see if it occurred more in tine length, mass, or a combo of both.
